[Association of [Ile462Val in genetic polymorphisms CYP1A1] and uterine leiomyoma risk in women in Charmahal va Bakhtiari, I.R. Iran]

Uterine leiomyoma is a benign solid tumor of smooth muscle and the most common type of gynecological tumor. It occurs in approximately 25-30% of women over 30 years old.

The Ile462Val [AG] Polymorphism between the two groups [P=0.306].
